WordCamp Video Highlight 2017/05/06

Just about any time that I am getting ready to walk into a new situation, I get feelings of being anxious and apprehensive. This is something that I have had to deal with for years and, although I am able to deal with those feelings, they still persist in a small way.

Such was the case when I was getting ready to walk into WordCamp Jackson.

It is during times like these, that I remember two presentations given by Marc Benzakein and Jeff Matson that I had the pleasure to attend and that made an impact on me.
